Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley take the stage while stepping out for the eighth annual pre-CMA Awards special: All Access Nashville: Celebrating the CMA Awards, which premiered on Monday (October 31) on ABC.

The country singers, who will host the upcoming 50th Annual CMA Awards, helped tease the big night with a star-studded evening of performances.

Lady Antebellum singer Hillary Scott is opening up about suffering a miscarriage last fall in this tearful interview with Good Morning America.

“Last fall, I went through a miscarriage,” the 30-year-old singer said before breaking down in tears.

“This is something is still not talked about very often. I also feel like there’s this pressure that you’re just supposed to be able to snap your fingers and continue to walk through life like it never happened,” she added.

Hillary also opened up about her new song “Thy Will,” which she wrote while “experiencing everything that comes with a miscarriage. So it was my most raw place that I could’ve ever been when this song truly poured out of me.”

Hillary and her husband Chris Tyrell are the parents of a two-year-old daughter named Eisele Kaye.

The song is gaining major steam at radio and has reached #1 on the Billboard club chart.

Audien just debuted the music video for the song the other day and you can watch it below.

“It’s been amazing to watch fans from different musical planets gravitate toward ‘Something Better.’ I’m excited to share this fitting video that beautifully compliments the track, and keeps us wondering who is out there,” Audien said in a statement.

The band is back in action after having a scary bus fire a few days ago.

“We just had to buy some new clothes and replace a few personal belongings but that’s nothing compared to what it could’ve been,” Hillary told People about the incident. “We’re all safe and sound my little girl is at home and has no idea what happened and that’s the way it should be. There were too many miracles happening on Thursday, we’re so thankful.”

Also in attendance at the event were fellow performers Little Big Town – Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet.
